After the attack, the photographers from mid-day, Hindustan Times and Times of India, sustained blunt trauma — also referred to as non-penetrating trauma caused from any strong physical attack. Later, they were kept under observation in the surgery department.

Dr DV Bhavani, superintendent of St George said, “They mainly suffered from superficial injuries. The reports of their X-Ray and CT scan didn’t show any major signs of internal injuries, but we had to keep them under observation for a stipulated time. We discharged them on Sunday.”
